well thats it feel free to insult just keep it short
Hello Spartan!!  ...no insults necessary! I like several of the things you've listed. The Jetpacks scare me, only because I secretly don't want players to be able to travel the map too independantly and put support carriers like me out of a job... .
Medium Armour vehcles have ALREADY been designed. They are called SVCs, they carry a big bag of small-turrets on them
for protection. I've seen a few technical drawings---quite fully developed already... But I suspect there just isn't enough need for them on these tiny maps we have.
The Mechs help feed this same growing issue I have with the game so far: We're out-GROWING the map sizes we currently have. Right now, we can barely use our vehicles on these small maps without overlapping each other and getting robbed of the fun of driving or hovering around.
Issues identified by Judge Radam and others have convinced CCP that there is not enough room for many of our less-armoured vehicles to travel without coming under immediate fire from Railguns, Cannons, Forges, etc.
CCP recently responded to the problem by REDUCING the reach of some of the most powerful weapons in the match.
I'm worried that shortening the arm of a crucially tactical weapon like the railgun installation makes it too weak to be useful at all. Getting the maps to become LARGER and leaving the ranges on these weapons alone is the better solution.
So getting bigger maps is the thing I'd love to see in 1.9, before more of our equipment is stripped of its range, and before a super-gadget like a MECH is brought into the map. (Right now, it would be like Godzilla circling around in a goldfish bowl, YIKES!) |

If you're suggesting there won't be any more "Patch" for the Uprising Series... that's fine with me. It is fair time for a page to be turned. I've already suggested titles like "Perdition", "Ascension", "Emmolation", something to signify the Dust Mercenary Clone situation that was once quaratined around Molden Heath, is now ready to spread like wildfire into the New Eden clusters.
...But if you're thinking with dispair that we need to give up on Dust because it's not going any further financially... you'll see how long this game is going to last. This is only Year One complete. |
